Memasukkan bahan bakar uranium menggunakan tongkat di reaktor X-10.
Reaktor Grafit X-10 , terletak di Laboratorium Nasional Oak Ridge di Oak Ridge , Tenessee adalah reaktor nuklir buatan kedua yang pernah dibuat (setelah Reaktor CP-1 milik Enrico Fermi ), dan reaktor pertama yang dirancang dan dibangun untuk operasi terus-menerus. Reaktor ini dibuat saat berkobarnya Perang Dunia II , sebagai bagian Proyek Manhattan .
